But there are two very special people you’ve forgotten–your flower girl and ring bearer. You remember them, don’t you? The little girl who heralds your walk down the aisle and the small boy who gives the two of you your rings for the ceremony? They may be children, but they should still not be ignored on your wedding day. After all, they’re part of your wedding party too. Here are a few things to consider when trying to find them a good present.

See if you can find a few family members for the children and talk to them about gift giving ideas. Maybe they have some suggestions. They may know things about them that you don’t, such as the fact that Mary likes to write and Nicholas loves to play soccer.

When people hear of a garden wedding, the first image that appears in their heads is a backyard or a park, with a plethora of plants as decorations. Of course, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with having an outdoor wedding, or even using plants as decorations. The idea, however, is to make the wedding look like a natural paradise and not the garden section of the local big box store. Here’s how to use plants at your wedding without overdoing it.

The first consideration should be your guests. Anyone with allergies will be extremely uncomfortable if you have a lot of flowers or other pollen producing plants in their vicinity. How can you combat this? Ideally, you can make sure that the person in question is as far away from the offending plants as they can get. Or simply plan to use other versions of that plant. For instance, if you wanted roses as decorations, you could use the petals instead. For beautiful (but strong smelling) gardenias or jasmine, use climbing vines or bushes that don’t blossom, such as ivy or pine. Remember that your guests are there to celebrate your day with you, and if they are uncomfortable, your wedding will not be the success that you meant it to be.

First of all, let’s talk about favors. Winter has so many symbols that it’s easy to find some that are right for you. Silver snowflakes add a charming touch, as do tiny tealights–the light within the darkness.You could do your own take on the tradition of having the guests ring a bell for the couple to kiss, and put strings of jingle bells on the table instead. Wedding guests always love this activity, and the jingle bells will provide a personal touch that they will love even more.

Music is an important part of the wedding, but even more so for the reception. Along with regular music for your dancing pleasure, slip in a few holiday tunes. “Let it Snow” is a classic, as is “Jingle Bell Rock”. Perhaps your first dance can be a slow dance to something like “Baby It’s Cold outside”. Your guests will dance the night away, inspired by the Christmas spirit.
